Neumünster 2025

This years Neumünster event started early Thursday morning at 8 am with CDI1 Prix St. Georg with very few spectators from the start of the class.

Successful at Young horse level

The 8 yr old mare Chere Celine OLD by Governor/San Amour with Lena Hassmann in the saddle has already showed themselves with great Young Horse results finishing as no 6 in the finals at WCYH in Ermelo as 5 yr old, 6 yr old and 7 yr old.

Chere Celine is an impressive mare with three really good basic gaits with super walk tour.

The reason why they never went into the very top as a youngster could be the fact that the mare most of the performances look a bit heavy in the contact, not that she is not uphill with closed foaming mouth, but that Lena always has to encourage her to be light and more independent of the contact (asking to carry head and neck more indepedent of the riders hands).

The mare shows a lovely swinging trot tour where her movements are of the ground and uphill, still lacking bit more forward go for extensions, super relaxation and quality of the walk, good quality of the canter with nice angle and balance for half pirouettes, still bit insecure for the series but well managed.
